TV docs live on stage

Based on the hit CBBC television series, Operation Ouch! is live on stage for the first time in the UK this December…

Opening at the Apollo Theatre in London’s West End on Sunday 9 December 2018, the strictly limited season ends on 6 January 2019 – and tickets are on sale now.

Packed with incredible stunts, crazy experiments and amazing facts, Dr Chris and Dr Xand will explore the fascinating world of biology and show the audience the awesome things the body can do. The doctors will also share their favourite bits from the television show.

Dr Chris and Dr Xand van Tulleken are identical twins who grew up in London and trained in medicine at Oxford University, graduating in 2002. They both still work in medicine: Dr Chris is based at University College London Hospital and Dr Xand is the Helen Hamlyn Senior Fellow at Fordham University’s Institute of International Humanitarian Affairs. This work is done concurrently with their media work, appearing together on shows such as The Human Body: Secrets of Your Life Revealed as well as their hugely popular children’s series Operation Ouch!, which has won two BAFTAs.
